The new coreutils is not strictly necessary, I try to set the dependencies to drag in the modified coreutils so that "ls" etc can do what you want. There is a bug in my coreutils package in that "cp" copies the security.selinux xattr even if you don't ask it to, this currently breaks Debian package building in enforcing mode (I'll fix it soon). > weird?), which fixed my policy problems, and now I have a policy > installed and loaded. Now I have a question about devfs: I use devfs + > devfsd, but I don't have devfs-se.so, nor do I know where to find Devfs is not supported by the new SE Linux (which you are using). Devfs is on the way out, so the NSA people do not consider it to be worth their effort to support it. If someone contributes kernel code patches to make it work properly then such patches will probably be accepted. But if that doesn't happen then devfs won't be supported. I have been using and supporting devfs for years, but this compelled me to start removing devfs from my systems. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
